"4 cups flour 1 cup table salt 1.5 cups warm water Mix it all together, roll it out on a floured surface to about 1/4 thickness, stamp hands, cut them out, punch a hole for an ornament (we used a metal straw!), bake at 200-250 for 2-4 hours. (It should feel completely hard and dry, not cool or damp inside)"
"If you're looking for a simple, fun Christmas craft, these DIY salt dough handprint ornaments are always a favorite. My daughter Courtney made Santa handprint ornaments last year for her baby boy Forrest's first Christmas, and again this year with Christmas tree footprints, too. Aren't they adorable? They are easy to make, use basic pantry ingredients, and turn into special keepsakes you'll want to hang on the tree every Christmas. They make a great grandparent gift, too!"
Combine 4 cups flour, 1 cup table salt, and 1.5 cups warm water to form a salt dough. Roll the dough to about 1/4-inch thickness on a floured surface, press handprints or footprints, cut out shapes, and punch a hole for hanging. Bake at 200–250°F for 2–4 hours until completely hard and dry inside. Paint with acrylics, adding details with a toothpick or Sharpie, then seal with spray sealer or Mod Podge. Finish with baker's twine or ribbon. The ornaments serve as personal keepsakes and thoughtful family gifts.
